Bill Gribble is arguably the country’s leading expert on behaviour management, renowned for his enthusiastic and entertaining INSET. Until recently he was a Senior Education Officer managing a LEA’s Educational Psychology, Education Social Work and Behavioural Support Services. He works with schools to help them develop effective behaviour management strategies and has lectured on Birmingham University’s Advanced Diploma and Masters Degree courses and at the University of Wales, Bangor. Bill has worked in secure accommodation, residential education and was the Headteacher of a special school. He ran a pupil referral unit (PRU) which a HMI inspection described as ’the best of its kind in the country,’ and subsequently advised HMI on PRU inspection.

The course Some staff seem to have an innate ability to manage pupil behaviour and, as a result, they have a much better rapport with the pupils, they find their work far more enjoyable, they are more relaxed and experience considerably less stress. These teachers, TAs and LSAs are also the most effective because they create an atmosphere that maximises pupil learning and achievement. However, such skills are not innate, THEY HAVE OFTEN BEEN LEARNT. It is consequently possible, with the right training, for most staff to acquire these skills and techniques and to employ the most effective behaviour management strategies. Even highly experienced colleagues can further improve and develop their abilities.

This course will help you to have a greater impact on pupils’ behaviour, ranging from those who adversely affect the learning of others with low levels of inappropriate conduct to young people who can be extremely disruptive. The course will provide practical materials and by the end of the day course members will know how to plan for behaviour. It will also consider whole school behaviour management issues.
